From the BBC article:

Mr Powell's resignation was announced along with three other cabinet members, bringing to six the number of key figures to leave the 15-member cabinet.

Rats abandoning a sinking ship? That's the image I got when I read that. But then, I'm sour on politics. Leaves a bad taste.

You either laugh or you cry, eh? I prefer not to think too much about it. I'm just glad for the distance - effects from the changes will no doubt trickle down, but I still feel comfortably removed from most of it. But still, I can't shake the feeling that something catastrophic is on the horizon...

I get that feeling too!! I try not to think about it, else I'd just give up now! I like in hope that Britain will vote Blair out come May, I doubt it though! we're fucked and doomed!

I was rooting for Tonga Bay but what the hey, I'll just grab my umbrella.


Wow... the pic of Lake Tekapo took my breath away... I don't suppose anyone from NZ would like to adopt me? Anyone? Anyone?
